In this special espionage edition of Murders, Mysteries, and Conspiracies, we dive into the real-life stories of two World War II intelligence legends — one a master manipulator behind enemy lines, the other a quiet powerhouse who trained spies and hunted their killers.
First, meet Richard Sorge — a charming Nazi-aligned journalist in Tokyo who was secretly the Soviet Union’s most effective spy. His intelligence shifted the tide of the war, but his reward was betrayal and death.
Then, step into the world of Vera Atkins — the woman who orchestrated espionage operations in occupied France for the British SOE, then spent years after the war tracking down those responsible for murdering her agents. She was composed, brilliant, and maybe even the inspiration for Miss Moneypenny.
These two masters of deception operated in different ways, on different sides of the war… but both shaped history from the shadows.
